Dear Sharon,

Hello again, just stopping by to tell you how much I appreciate the books, support & comfort you have given to me lately. I believe I would still be a lost victim if it weren`t for you & your book as you both pointed me in the right direction. Your book is amazing & it`s so nice to know that I am not going through this alone. I hope people that visit your site & also that read your book will tell others about your website, I know I will. Again thanks. The following is a poem I wrote before reading your book. I no longer blame God after reading Who`s Watching Your Drink, instead I keep thanking God for my son & letting me live & not die on them horrible nights. I have reason to believe this happened to me four times in my life. When I was 17, 18, 20, & again 20 yrs.

God help me I`m so, so sad, I recently learned my son has a bad dad. The man whom had taken me on that awful night, God what he did to me, just was not right.

This has been hidden deep inside me all these years, Now I have to fight to push away all my tears. How could you let something like that happen to me, Now, I wish he had never told me and just let us be.

You saw what he did to me on that frightful night, And you know my son just wants him to make things right. Until then my son lives on without that bad dad, Who cannot face up to the fact that he was so bad.

How can you allow so much rape in this world, Everytime I think or hear about it my stomach gets curled. He told me he remembers fooling around with me that night, But by telling me 27 years later doesn`t make things right.

Thank you for writing your book"Who's Watching Your Drink". The incident also happened to me although, I didn't know it at the time. In my case I am almost sure photos and video were taken as well. I vaguely remember something like that. It haunts me to this day and I did report it, anonymously.

Thanks for speaking out against these HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE people who feel it is their right to violate someone else.

I was in Las Vegas last week, I left a drink unattended along with my camera and a couple of shopping bags while my sister and a friend went to the bathroom. I checked on them to see if they were okay and when I returned a security guard had my items in his hand. During this time I had had a few drinks but was fine.

After I got back to my drink and took a few sips of it while we were leaving I felt a bit funny. Then it hit me. I lost the next 5 to 6 hours of the night. I didn't pass out though, instead I became very aggressive and verbally abusive to my family and friend. I have no recollection of what happened. My family said my eyes were dilated and I looked very evil, this matched my personality that night. My oldest sister punched me in the mouth, cutting me with her wedding band, of course I have no recollection of that either.

This issue went on until about 5 am. by 7 am I was up feeling groggy but I wasn't intoxicated. I was communicating fine, I was very tired and my body ached all over. The next day I was exhausted and felt like I had the body aches as if I had the flu. I spoke with Mary at "Project watch Your Drink"and she figured I had been drugged.

Please tell others to be aware and never leave there drink unattended.

I had gone to a work party with my boyfriend. I drank one beer, because I wanted to leave early that day. I waited until the party was over however, because my boyfriend was having a good time. Most people had gone home and boyfriend suggested we sit with some of his co-workers and keep drinking. I agreed, but didn't drink.

Soon everyone at the table was drunk, one of my boyfriend's co-workers then bought me a drink. I didn't want it but felt embarrassed to say no. I drank about half then had to go to the restroom. My boyfriend said I never came out of there, apparently people were looking for me and by this time I was gone, my car was gone as well. I woke up 2 hours later in my car a couple of blocks away with some bruises, and completely unaware of what had happened.

I still don't have any explanations of what happened, except I was semi nude. Since then I don't drink, but the thought of passing out and not knowing what happened haunts me everyday. I wish no one goes through something like that. Even with people near, things can always happen.

I heard you on the radio this morning on 104.7 KCLD. I wanted to say how thankful I am for someone out there like you getting this message across!!

I was a victim of a date rape pill twice already in my 26 yrs on this planet. The one time I was taken advantage of by a boyfriend and his best friend. The second time was 2 yrs ago, I ended up 40 mile away from the bar I was at. I ended up with some strange guy (who helped me, don't know if he spiked my drink or not), and was laying under a car in a parking lot.

It was very scary…took weeks for me to feel okay again. I could have been beaten, raped, or left for dead. I was lucky.....but women like you aren't. Thank you for doing this, it does make a difference!!! Even if its one girls life or one guys life, putting that information out there could prevent some horrible turn of events.

God bless you and your work Sharon.
